BS is a platinum sponsor at affiliateguarddog and a gold sponsor at GPWA.
In other words things look “bright” for them when letting them have those spots and Titles.
Just saying.
Well I do believe Lloyd posted this during the holidays maybe since it is pretty much down time for many give them a chance to catch up to the news….

Brightshare sucks plain and simple! Any decent earning affiliate knows this place was up to shady stuff the min they lost all the USA players! Do you think they gave a rats ass about affiliates? NO! This was about cutting the fat to save the $ shareholders were losing. I stopped main exposure for this place a long time ago and everyone else should do the same to save themselves a big headache.
I’m not here to ruffle your feathers bonustreak or pick a fight, but I find it strange that you’d sling off at BS but have no issue with CR/RA who have been doing the same thing.
We can play semantics but contacting tagged players with straight links and all the other dodgy ways CR/RA employs to steal players (untag them from affiliates), is no different to what your taking total umbrage over Brightshare and what they’ve done & still do.

While you don’t own either of these affiliate forums, you are (at last check) a Super Mod at AGD and a long standing privater member at GPWA. Where, BS is a sponsor of both forums.
If you know BS are dodgy then wouldn’t you be taking this up with Andy? (who btw was just as upset about the USA moves performed by BS).
I mean if I was a Mod on a forum which had a program I knew had shafted me and others on a grand scale, I’d be pulling all stops out to have their sponsorship breached. If nothing gets done and the program remained, I’d vote with my feet.
A cynical person may wonder if BS and RA (straight link banner atop RA forum) remain on ADG because an outside influence is pulling the strings. Just saying.
Edit: And lets not forgot that AGD, APCW, GPWA etc etc etc are all members of the http://www.affiliateforumalliance.com/Members/ owned by non other than MC.
I have already contacted BS and hope to hear from them. To pull their sponsorship without proof of what Lloyd has said is true would be as big an offense as any other, IMO. They do have time to respond and it is the holidays for many of us.
As far as Bonustreak, she has her opinions and I have never had an issue with her expression of those opinions.
I don’t think she should be chastised for them as she definitely speaks her mind on all certification votes and re-votes.As far as eluding that AGD would ever take money for a certification. (i.e., buy a certification or a status)… That is ridiculous and everyone pretty much knows that. If BS is guilty – they will not be sponsors, but Rogues. That’s the way AGD has always worked. It’s also why we have 6 sponsors instead of 50, but it is what it is.
Happy Holidays everyone at CAP!!

When a person is wearing the HAT of a moderator or admin at a forum, they’re an indenture servant to that forum and should be unbiased.

If your trying to suggest that I’m implying AGD takes money with the following statement then your barking up the wrong tree.

I wont hide the fact, I find it bizarre you claim to take a high moral stance against unethical programs, yet as I’ve stated above, Rewards Affiliates still has a straight linked banner on the AGD forum.
There’s enough factual proof posted (at AGD) by myself and others which proves beyond reasonable doubt, RA and CR are dropping aff tags and hoodwinking players away from affiliates with every chance they get. Not to mention their the worse spammers in the industry.
However in your capacity as the owner of AGD, apart from throwing up a cross marketing alert, you keep this clip joint and give RA a straight linked banner to boot!
If that action doesn’t qualify for valid questions concerning accountability, or make me wonder if an outside influence in dictating which programs get carte blanche at AGD, I don’t know what does.

I find it more than odd a rep for Brightshare has posted to this thread a few times and is well aware of the Lloyd (GPWA thread). Yet no one from BS utters a word about these accusations here.
Further more, no comment from BS over at GPWA either, even though Lloyd blew the whistle on these issues ten days ago (14’th December 2012). Yet, Marcia was here Today 11:10 AM.
So not everyone from BS is on holiday just yet.
For the record, I hope your investigation into BS doesn’t go the same path as RA.
You said on AGD you’d commenced testing RA. I coped a load of semantics from you when asked for an update. 8 weeks or so later you eventually fessed up to not starting the testing as stated.
If it sounds like I don’t hold much faith on your gonna do this or that statements. You’d be right!
Just for the record I am also a moderator on this forum where BS does have a section as well…
As I said it is the holidays things are always slow this time of year why not give everyone a chance to catch up after the holidays…@bonustreak 248517 wrote:

Yes BS does have a forum here and yes I’m well aware your a mod here too.
Least here it’s being discussed. So not sure what your point to all this is.
:chearlead No point at all
